:) it made me happy to be pushed over here to your blog for the purpose of reading your living poetry. i came for another reason, to tell you my mail does in fact seem to be dysfunctional... i got your last e-mail, the one where you ask if i am "there". i wrote you a long response and now it won't connect to the server to send so i will wait till it works again and send it winging your way. i didn't want you to think i had moved to another country and cut off all communication with my previous life :) i have no desire to do that at this point in time. this is a lovely, life giving post dear heart. thank you.
